Surgical Treatment of Urethral Strictures in Men at the "Helуos" Surgery and Rehabilitation Center

What is urethral stricture?

Urethral stricture is the narrowing of the urethra, which restricts the normal flow of urine. It can be caused by trauma, infections, previous surgeries, or chronic inflammation. Strictures can lead to pain, urinary retention, urinary tract infections, and fertility problems.

When should you consult a doctor?

Surgical treatment of urethral strictures may be necessary in the following cases:

Pain and discomfort during urination.
Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying.
Weak or intermittent urine flow.
Frequent urinary tract infections caused by impaired urine flow.
Complications such as bleeding or urinary retention.

How is the surgery performed?

1.Consultation and diagnosis — initially, the patient undergoes an examination and special tests, including cystoscopy or uroflowmetry, to determine the location and severity of the stricture.

2.Surgery — there are several surgical methods to treat urethral strictures, including:

Urethroplasty — restoring the normal diameter of the urethra through a plastic surgical procedure. This can involve either local reconstruction or tissue grafts from another part of the body.
Stricture incision — the surgeon makes an incision in the urethra to widen the narrowed section.
Stenting — placement of special tubes (stents) to help maintain urethral patency.

3.Rehabilitation — after surgery, the patient may leave the clinic within a few hours or the next day. Recovery usually takes from a few days to a week. It's important to follow the doctor's instructions to avoid complications.
